Three days later, the 130,000 army set off to Chaoge, covering the sky with flags, and the soldiers were full of energy, rolling up a burst of dust. Half a year's experience on the battlefield in Xiqi has made this army reborn, revealing a tiger and wolf atmosphere.

There are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, there is Deng Jiugong, the god in the army, those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, greedy for life and afraid of death have already been eliminated in training, and now the rest are young and strong.

Deng Jiugong rode the ink unicorn, and his heart was full of emotion, when he first came to Xiqi, only Deng Chanyu and Tuxingsun could be used, but now he has gathered a group of strange people, even in the face of Jin Xian, he has the power to fight.

This strength may not be anything in the eyes of those strong people, but for Deng Jiugong, it has far exceeded his expectations. This Xiqi experience, whether it is strength or fame, he has gained a lot.

"Report, three miles further on, you will arrive at Bishui Pass. ”

Deng Jiugong was stunned, Bishui Pass is the first pass of Xiqi Eastward, it is one of the five passes, Xiongguan is dangerous, it is difficult for birds to cross, and it is guarded by Han Rong.

"Report, Han Rong, the chief soldier of Bishui Pass, personally went out of the city to greet him. ”

Deng Jiugong smiled slightly, it seems that the benefits brought by his promotion, Han Rong is here to show favor to himself. I think that at the beginning, when I first came to Xiqi, I was a major general and a few soldiers, and Han Rong was close at hand, but he didn't send anyone to help, and he didn't even see the shadow of food and equipment, but now he has changed his normal, and this person knows the way of being an official.

"Xiaguan Han Rong has seen the handsome, and I wish the handsome a victorious return. ”

Han Rong smiled, he was not very optimistic about Deng Jiugong at the beginning, thinking that he was just like Wen Zhong, he could not escape the defeat and death of the army, after all, the tyrannical and unreasonable king of the Emperor caused the people to lose their hearts and fights. As the saying goes: Those who have many ways have more help, and those who have lost their ways have little help.

He understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, his task is only to guard the pass, as for sending troops to support Deng Jiugong, everything depends on the war. Unless the fall of Xiqi is imminent, he will not risk sending troops.

Who knows, this Deng Jiugong also took it seriously, he defeated the strong with the weak, and repeatedly beat Jiang Ziya to lose his armor and flee in a hurry, Xiqi's vitality was greatly damaged, and Ji Fa had to submit a letter of surrender to the imperial court due to the situation.

Deng Jiugong said modestly: "This time we can win the battle, it all depends on the support and trust of the imperial court, the soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, and the official did not make any effort, so that Lord Han smiled." ”

Han Rong said: "The marshal is modest, although the lower official is in the rear, he pays a lot of attention to things on the battlefield. The handsome strategized in the account, and won thousands of miles away, and I have been a country for hundreds of years, not to mention that there has been a handsome talent who has passed through the heavens and latitudes. ”

Now that Xiqi has withdrawn the army, the water is as stable as Mount Tai, and he no longer has to sleep and eat for the war. Speaking of which, he wants to thank Deng Jiugong, if it weren't for Deng Jiugong's mansion to tilt, when Jiang Ziya's army is over, his Han family may have to sacrifice his life for the country.

Deng Jiugong smiled slightly, this Han Rong can't lead troops to fight, there is a set of compliments, and the imperial court asked him to guard Bishui Pass, which is not the blessing of Sheji. When this person was young, he may have been a qualified guard, but now that he is old and has the fetters of family business, he no longer has the strength to dare to fight before.

Seeing that he was silent, Han Rong couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so he said: "Dashuai, it's windy here, the lower officials have already prepared wine and food in the customs to entertain the Dashuai and the generals, please!"

"Lord Han has a heart. ”

Deng Jiugong and his entourage followed Han Rong into the pass, and all the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command were stationed in the city, and the generals under Han Rong were responsible for eating and drinking.

......

The banquet set by Han Rong was very sumptuous, far better than the standard of Deng Jiugong's reception of angels a few days ago. After three rounds of drinking, Deng Jiugong glanced at Han Rong and suddenly said, "Lord Han, this official has been ordered to return to the teacher, and I need your help with something." ”

Han Rong looked surprised and hurriedly said, "Handsome and defenseless." ”

Deng Jiugong muttered: "General Yuhua originally served under the command of the Lord, and was temporarily loaned to the Xiqi military camp by this official, but now that the war is over, it should be returned." He has made many military exploits under his official account, so he has been promoted to a former general, and Lord Han cannot demote his position because he has returned to the camp. ”

Han Rong listened, and his heart was overjoyed, Yu Hua is Yu Yuan's high disciple, the Taoism is extraordinary, with him, Bishui Pass has a few more combat effectiveness, "Don't worry, Marshal Yu Hua is a former general, and it is the same with me." ”

Deng Jiugong nodded, glanced at Gao Jineng, and said, "There is also General Gao Jineng, and I also ask Lord Han to make more arrangements." Gao Jineng knows the art of war well, and he is afraid that his talent will be buried, so he plans to let him stay in Bishui Pass and assist Lord Han in defending the city. ”

Han Rong said with a cheerful face: "The lower officials are all in charge of the marshal, and with the help of a general like General Gao, this water is as stable as Mount Tai." ”

He wished that Deng Jiugong would leave all the generals under him in Bishui Pass, so that even if Jiang Ziya made a comeback, he would not be afraid of him. The generals under Deng Jiugong's command are all people who have fought hard battles with Xiqi, and those who have survived the sea of blood in the corpse mountain know the roots of the Xiqi generals, and they are also easy to use.

Deng Jiugong was a little surprised, he thought that it would take a lot more time, but he didn't know that Han Rong agreed so easily, is the title of generalissimo really so useful. If that's the case, you should take advantage of it.

At this time, the two brothers Han Sheng and Han Bian came in with an excited face, and they were even more excited when they saw the Dharma Ring, although they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, they still recognized it at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and said, "The apprentice has seen the master." In the hearts of the two of them, the Dharma precept is that they have the grace of teaching art, and they should be treated as teachers.

Fa Jie's face was slightly moved, and he said: "You don't have to salute, I received a bowl of fasting rice from you back then, taught you skills, and was kind and affectionate." ”

Han Sheng said proudly: "Master is a master in the world, he thinks that our qualifications are dull, and he refuses to accept us as apprentices, our brothers understand." It's just that our skills are taught by you personally, and we have long regarded you as a master in our hearts, and we deserve to be courtesy. ”

Fa Jie bowed his head and said: "You two are so polite and respectful, and it is not in vain for me to teach you an art, but you have no relationship with me, you can't be a master and apprentice, so you can't force it." "He has a disciple Peng Zun, and now he is the precursor of the Jiepai Pass.

When Han Sheng and Han Chang heard this, they couldn't help but be disappointed, the two of them had seen the magic of the spell, and they dreamed of worshipping a great immortal as a teacher, but they finally looked forward to the Dharma Ring, but they refused to accept them.

Han Rong's face was a little embarrassed, and he reprimanded Han Sheng and the brothers: "Don't retreat yet, Deng Dashuai is here, how can you two brothers be allowed to mess around." ”

When the Han brothers heard Deng Jiugong's name, they were solemn in their hearts, and they glanced at Deng Jiugong curiously, and then retreated honestly. They only respect the Dharma precepts, but they worship Deng Jiugong.

Han Rong smiled dryly: "The dog is stubborn and rude, please forgive me." ”

Deng Jiugong said with a smile: "No defense, I think the two noble sons are temperamental, just like a piece of jade, after a little polishing, it can be of great use." Lord Han, in my opinion, your son will definitely be better than the blue in the future, and his achievements will far surpass you!"

When Han Rong heard this, his face turned red, and he said with a smile: "The handsome man has won the award!"

His son can be praised by Deng Jiugong like this, Han Rong is quite happy in his heart, as a father, who doesn't want to be stronger from generation to generation, he is old and frail, and the foundation of the Han family will be handed over to Han Sheng and Han Chang sooner or later.

"Lord Han, I've also eaten, I'm about to set off, Yu Hua and Gao Jineng will ask the adults to take care of me. ”

Han Rong said: "Don't worry, I will make proper arrangements." ”

Deng Jiugong nodded, asked Chen Qi to gather troops and horses outside the city, and set off later.
